Sound cheesy. Boxster and Carrera are different categories. One is a roadster'ish two seater revised to cater to 997 Cab types, and the other is essentially a GT revised to cater to rich Chinese and Russians considering a high end, plush, bloated but powerful. Merc, BMW or Jaguar. If you can't afford the latter you should just buy a CPO 997 Cab -- you get your warranty and the big, auto-pilot driving experience.

But I suspect that Porsche revised the Boxster knowing that it needed to be more appealing to a yuppy'ish buyer that couldn't swing what they knew would a monster price tag Carrera. There is something inherently cheesy and poseurish about this.
